Plenty of rumors surrounding Guardians of the Galaxy 2 have been popping up lately, but according to director James Gunn, they're all false.

Said Gunn Ina recent interview with MTV: "I don’t feel beholden to that stuff at all. I think it’s really about the Guardians and what they are doing," Gunn said. "We’re not subservient to the Avengers. Guardians 2 is not a movie that’s made to move toward Infinity War. It’s something that’s made to move toward future cosmic movies, so I don’t feel that that is something that affects me that much."

Recent rumor had suggested that the Guardians sequel would be made to set up Infinity War. It was also said the Incredible Hulk would play an important role in the sequel. In addition, it was believed that Infinity War presumably had dibs on Thanos. Now, however, it looks as though all those ramblings can be put to rest.
